Beef is the natural Ozempic. We need more Dr's like this.

[@ianguarneschelli2082]

Thanks for coming on the channel Doctor Jones! Every doctor is another victory! 💪🏻 Have a great day everyone and God bless. 🙏🏻❤️

[@ambrosiofamily6902]

I will emphasize what another commenter has already said, we are starving for good docs to join us. Thank you both for this critical video.

[@phreedomphile]

Yes! Great to see the variety as well, with Dr Jones being a chiropractor, and many specialist MDs and DOs jumping on board, as well dentists including one interviewed by Dr Baker who was able to help a patient reverse a very painful progressive "largely untreatable" oral tissue disease after adopting a carnivore diet.

[@tallcedars2310]

F.L.O.A.=Fasting like our ancestors. Dr. Jones has a great online practice that I hope goes mainstream. We are starving for this common sense approach. With his practice exploding this last while, it won't be long before carnivore reaches the tipping point for society. Thanks Dave!

same with mental ilness ow beneficial the keto diet is. Something they took 100 years to figure out but now its there

[@janetmcburney4582]

Do you feel that using low dose GLP1 in addition to carnivore would be helpful if in a long stall.

[@kordelia.in.Albany]

Dr. Jones doing wonderful things for his patients. Terrific interview!

[@krismasson3692]

Wow. Thank you. It’s hard to be carnivore when everyone around you say your crazy. 10 months in and doubt myself everyday. But hearing the stories on here and now doctors. Makes me realize I’m on the right track.

[@WigswithHeather]

I hope people around you start to notice health improvements and be supportive. Try to stay positive. I am the only carnivore in my household and sometimes that can be frustrating, but for the most part it has not been overly troublesome. I think you’re on the right track too!

[@David-R.]

19:03 I hope you're reading this doc. I was doing SO WELL on a carnivore diet and once I heard that Paul Saladino (who I admired and trusted back then) started to consume fruits and honey and dairy, I allowed myself as well, but with MUCH smaller amounts than he consumes. What happened?! My inflammation came back and so did my joint pain. I stayed in denial for so long blaming it on myself or my genetics, rather than cutting out the SUGARS that I LOVED!! I've been allowing myself to have a half a tablespoon of honey in my big glass of tea that I usually don't even finish half of it, and occasionally some dairy, or some tangerines or blueberries, for the past year!! I was doing VERY little of that and not even every day. about 6 days ago, I decided to go against Paul's advice and try and do what healed me in the beginning, which was clean carnivore. I already feel better and my inflammation is already gone!!!! Fruits, honey and dairy is food for the sugar and carb addicts, not for people who eat to live and thrive. They're pleasure foods for those who live to eat. I'm just letting people know that Paul's advice was certainly detrimental for me personally and that Paul isn't even trained in human nutrition and can't distinguish between a reputable study and a weak one. Trust me on that one. Ok back to the video. Edit: ok I'm glad you did say "tolerate" so you acknowledge that those aren't good for you. You're off the hook now lol. Kind of..

[@DaleAnderle]

Kudos Dr. Jones for thinking outside the box and modeling the behavior for your patients AND this audience!

[@johannesswillery7855]

Keep spreading the word!

[@chargermopar]

If we keep getting more carnivore doctors, it may motivate me to one day want to go to a doctor again after decades!

[@Canadian-Carnivore]

I have been on again off again and am on again just now. Even with my inconsistent form, the results are still incredible. 62 years old and weigh what I weighed at 21! Getting stronger and muscular more than ever!! Just over a year now and 2025 is my break through year! I have goals set that are going to blow my socks off! Health is Wealth. ☮️❤️🙏. Wake with gratitude and humility everyday, and do your best.

I used to have regular cheating with chocolate. And I found the solution to it. Whenever I have the cravings I eat fatty meat until satisfied and then I take the chocolate after my meal and I have realised that my cravings are completely gone... at this point to eat the chocolate becomes literally forcing it into my mouth without any desire to eat it... even the taste seems off like from chocolate to poop....😮 It's crazy how much I like chocolate when craving it but if I eat fatty meat I don't want to see it just an hour later. I would recommend everyone to battle the cravings that way. ❤

[@lovelylora1700]

Cacoa or chocolate?

[@CarnivoreAwakening]

@lovelylora1700 Nutella 😅

[@bonnieschmidt5882]

What kind of chocolate are you eating? Many years ago I ate some chocolate (I won’t mention the brand) and I thought it tasted a bit manure-ish. I’m doing the World Carnivore challenge this month, but what I liked about 90-100% dark chocolate was that it didn’t start my craving. I could eat just one bite after dinner and then ignore it for weeks at a time. I still have some around during this month when I’m not eating any carbs and I can totally ignore it.

[@lovelylora1700]

[@johncarter4411]

Carnivore is sustainable for me as i have no cravings on it. I also don't feel like I'm starving all the time. That is what makes it sustainable for me.

[@vadenton8735]

Good morning Dave. From Poulan Ga, USA. It's so great to hear another doctor have experienced the Carnivore Lifestyle. Great Interview. Thanks for all you do and for sharing.

A quickie today 😇😂 great conversation, thank you gentlemen!

[@tradermunky1998]

Well, I'm a tad annoyed you were so close minded starting out doc, but I'll forgive you 😅 Gets even better 6+ months in. You're pretty young, might grow back some of that hair (happening to me!) I did fasting when I was doing keto, really helpful I think. But completely dropped it on carnivore, don't really feel it's beneficial at all now. And I naturally kind of do it when I am simply not hungry. I really don't think any of that regiment diet stuff is needed if plants are not eaten. Thanks guys and welcome aboard!

[@zerocarb]

Cheers, Trader!

[@Epona52]

Hmmm - fruit is the way that plants reproduce; in order to protect their "young", immature fruit is higher in toxins, which are gradually removed as the fruit ripens, making it more attractive to the animals that will spread the seeds. Most fruit in grocery stores is picked before it is ripe, eliminating the opportunity for the plant to remove those toxins. So - unless you have an apple tree, and can pick your fresh fruit when ripe - AND have an heirloom variety, and good, healthy soil with all the microbes and micronutrients - you will get a fruit that is higher in sugars, higher in toxins, and lower in beneficial nutrients. There is a big difference between home-grown, organic produce and anything you get at a store - ANY store! The average medium apple has 19 grams of sugar - your body only needs about 4, so that's going to trigger an insulin reaction because any amount above 4 grams in the bloodstream becomes damaging.

[@skulijakobsson5116]

Much Enjoyment 👍😎

[@afishon2nd]

The health benefits are why I will always be a carnivore I initially lost 65 lbs but that is nothing compared to the way I feel. There is no Frankenfood that tastes as good as feeling great feels.

[@bonnieschmidt5882]

I’m doing the World Carnivore challenge this month (January, 2025) but I really miss the color on my plate. I didn’t really have any current issues (having already lost 80 lbs and maintained it), so I don’t have a strong enough “why” to not add a little bit of seasonal vegetables or fruit and even an occasional bite of 100% dark chocolate. I guess you could call my final eating plan as ketovore. I still won’t eat added sugar, grains, or seed oils.

[@meatavoreNana]

I want to emphasize how critical plants are for our lives. Without grass, Cows cannot be fed, and, therefore we cannot eat properly.

[@annerussell5217]

I really want to have a discussion with a vegan and say, “I have a vegan diet, I just outsource my digestion to cattle”. Trouble is a neurologically damaged vegan wouldn’t get it.

Great interview

[@gailsage7921]

I Fast for 4 days, and I do not have any issues with metabolic slow down. I also only eat once a day and my blood work is great.

[@michaelcrain3360]

Regarding the doctor's "fruit on carnivore" approach, he is only citing the insulin sensitivity [to sucrose] from eating fruit, yet ignores or, is unaware of the seven-fold [versus sucrose] deleterious effects to the body by the fructose in the fruit. Fruit has no benefit to humans unless it's playing a role in survival or is deemed worth the tradeoffs by the individual.

[@DrJonesDC]

Fruit plays a massive role from the perspective of keeping somebody on a near proper human diet. What’s optimal for an individual is what they can actually adhere to which is closest to “the” optimal.

[@red58impala]

Back in 2019 I dropped 70 pounds in 4 months with extended fasting and at the time I would have said carnivore. My definition of carnivore is more strict these days. Regarding those fasts, I'd fast 60-66 hours feast for 24-36 hours and start fasting again. I felt great but I think that fasting that much that close together destroyed my gallbladder. I definitely don't recommend fasting that much or that often. I still IF every day and have only undertaken a couple of extended fasts over the past nine months. I'd like to add more in, but with my consistent weight loss I don't see it as a need at the moment. I'll definitely add in more extended fasts to see if that will help with any loose skin. I had no loose skin in 2019 after dropping 130 pounds. Six years older and gaining all the weight back, I doubt I'll have the same success avoiding loose skin.

[@francelarebelle1138]

I love dr Jones❤

[@kippie80]

Did one 30-day fast to lose 15Kg. 2weeks before, started eating pork belly in AM. After fasting, switched to carnivore. It worked for me but there are better ways. Over Easter, do dry fast for 40 days (intermittent and only eat/drink at sundown) for Holy Week, full fasting. Not sure if 7 days will be wet/dry yet.

[@cherimaas9866]

Hi. I am trying to get myself fully carnivore from a keto lifestyle. My question is about my cousin who has severe MS. He is in a wheelchair and eating SAD. Have you seen any changes in MS patients? I have seen several miraculous-looking videos. They seem too good to be true. I'd love to suggest he see you.

[@biodieseler1]

ELOA (Eating Like Our Ancestors) would be a much more acceptable phrase. Prople recoil with horror when you say fasting, but it comes naturally when you eat a species specific human diet.

[@richardwallis2900]

I'm carnivore an fast over sat an sunday! Doing well 😂😂😂

[@susanberube445]

Would really like to go carnivore but I’m all alone and really addicted to sugar and carbs. I think it would really help a lot of my physical issues and mental health

[@janetmcburney4582]

Just do it slow first cut the highest sugar containing foods and processed foods from your diet and add more meat and low carb vegetables and just do it slow and then gradually lower your sugar carb content until it's gone you don't have to do it all at once

[@tootstoyou1]

It’s actually easier if you live alone. Get rid of all the processed bad food, all the sugary items. Just throw them out if nobody wants them and have only meat in your fridge, plus lots of eggs, good butter and maybe cruciferous vegetables. Buy a jar of tallow from a good source and go for it!

[@LiberLady]

Starting out with Intermittent Fasting really helped me get rid of the cravings! Then when I moved into carnivore, the weight fell off so easy (25 lbs). I have another 15 to go, and I IF every Sunday. The body becomes better at metabolism when we change it up. Carnivore keeps me so satisfied that I typically have no temptation. If I lived alone it would be easier. My husband constantly offers me junk....so annoying!

[@JoySmith-z6p]

Just think of the rest of your life....then you will do it. It's amazing how fast you actually recover from carb addiction, never feel hungry, and motivate yourself because of how you feel😊

[@MKay-u7z]

IF the AMA finds out about this, he'll lose his license.

[@Grannievore]

Great interview! I find myself wondering how in the world you ended up 100 pounds overweight at the age of 16? It had to have something to do with the food you were eating and no doubt you were trying to be healthy so what do you think Doc how did it happen

[@DrJonesDC]

I ate a ton of garbage junk food no doubt! Food was my happy place.

[@Grannievore]

@ Well, I’m super glad you found carnivore and you are speaking up about it. I can’t get my doctor, whom I really like, to have a real conversation about it. All she can focus on is the fact that my cholesterol has gone up some. All my other markers are better, and, I’ve lost 56 pounds in 1.75 years and I’ve been able to go off my HRT and tons of those aging irritations are improving. Still, she has zeroed in on that one marker. I view it as my body still making repairs. :/

[@SquigglyLines2024]

Carnivore with fruit... sorry, this is the first time I've felt like criticising a guest. Carnivore with fruit is omnivore

[@davey_M]

So it's not quite meat meat meat baby, it's meat, fruit, meat, honey baby, ;)

[@dreambig3902]

Any mammal that eats 70% or more food that is animal based is a hyper carnivore.
